  1. Use a professional detergent to clean. For heavily soiled leather sofas, it's best to purchase a professional detergent. Apply the detergent to a special sponge, then rub the sponge in circular motions on the leather sofa. Finally, wipe it clean with a dry leather wipe. This method easily removes stains and protects the leather.

  2.  Clean with cleaning solution. Mix cleaning solution with warm water, apply to a soft cloth and wipe repeatedly. After wiping clean, wipe dry with a dry cloth.

  3. Clean with toothpaste. For small areas of dirt, apply toothpaste to the dirt, gently rub with a soft cloth, and finally wipe it clean with a clean towel.

  4. Clean with alkaline water. If a leather sofa has large areas of dirt, you can use baking soda mixed with warm water to wipe it repeatedly. This method is very effective and can remove even years of dirt. However, it's not very good for the leather.

  5. Clean with medicated oil. Medicated oil can quickly remove oily dirt.

  6. Use an eraser. Find a clean eraser and use it to wipe away the rubbery residue; the effect is very good.

When cleaning a leather sofa, please keep the following points in mind:


① Do not use water. Washing with water will cause the leather to stiffen and peel.

② Do not use indiscriminate cleaning agents. There are various types of cleaning agents on the market, and their ingredients differ. Many cleaning agents will cause the leather to yellow and fade.

③ Do not wash at high temperatures. High temperatures will cause the leather to harden and shrink.


These are some tips for cleaning leather sofas; hopefully, they will be helpful.
